STYER PROPANE BUDGET PLAN
This is a twelve (12) month
budget plan, and not a payment plan. All budget accounts will start in May
of the current year.
The purpose of the plan is
to allow customers to make regular monthly payments on their account, which
should be more affordable than a full delivered amount. By starting the plan in
May, there should be enough credit accumulated on the customer’s account to pay
for their upcoming winter deliveries.
The month of May will be the
annual “start” date for the Budget Plan. To enroll in the budget plan, the
customer must have a zero ($0) balance or a credit on their account on April
30th. (If there is a credit on the account, this will be factored into
determining the monthly budget amount.) We will estimate propane costs for the upcoming
season and estimate your propane usage for one year based on your account
history. Budget figures are calculated with the tank being full.
Current budget customers continuing the budget plan from one year to the next
must have their account reconciled by the end of April.
For our new budget customers, your budget amount will be estimated
based on the square footage of your home until we have a history on your
account.
Your monthly statement will
reflect your account balance and your budget amount due. You will pay
the “Budget Amount Due”. The company will periodically review the budget
accounts throughout the year and make adjustments to your budget amount as
needed. (Fluctuation in usage and the propane market has a
direct affect on your budget amount.) Any changes to your budget amount will
be noted on the monthly statement.
Payments are due by the 15th
of each month. Payments not received by the 15th will be considered
late and deliveries may be delayed. No discounts will be given
on budget payments.
If two payments are missed,
you will be automatically removed from the Budget Plan. Once you are removed
from the Budget Plan for any reason, you will have to wait until the following
May to be reconsidered for enrollment.
Budget payments are for gas
deliveries only. All service, labor and parts are due within normal credit
terms of 30 days and will be due in addition to your budget payment.
If you would like to enroll
in the budget plan, please call the office during the last two weeks of April
to discuss your budget amount. After you confirm that you want to be on the
budget program, your next statement will show your budget amount due.
